Then it's not a real BSD stty; Sun must have broken it. Real Berkeley
stty ("@(#)stty.c 5.4 (Berkeley) 4/4/86") does most of its ioctls
to file descriptor 1, meaning it will print/change the settings of its
stdout. (Exceptions: "stty size" and "stty speed" explicitly use
/dev/tty for some inscrutiable reason.)
